After the party had rested to full strength, the party and the captured goblin moved north west of the battle ground through a smaller trail. Every so often the the sniper would stop the party and sniff the air and peer to the right, then left, only to start up again. This happens two other times until he stops again, this time turning around, holding his finger to his lips as a sign to be quiet. He then states to the monk in a hushed voice. They are here, motioning to the opening around the corner up ahead. I go talk to my friends now...yes?

I think it is better that WE go talk to him. Sharpe says in a whisper. He was not a fan of sneaking around. Perhaps it would be good to make nice with these goblins however. They might worshiped gold pagan idols he could steal or hold sacrifices he could save and return to their parents for a large reward. Maybe they even hold sacrifices to dragons!

Sharpe walks with the goblin to a point where the goblin stops him. You peak around corner and watch for me. I give you signal when I ready....Himmmm...what signal....hmmmmm...ah yes. I grab torch and throw it on ground. You see torch on ground then you go back and tell others to come with weapons ready. The ones who don't fight are friends...yes? The goblin gets the nod from the bard, who then peeks from behind a tree to get a full view of what happens next.

The goblin then moves down the rest of the path which ends at the mouth of a large cave. Torches light illuminates the inside of the cave. Two huge goblin guards eye the goblin as he walks forward. The goblin to the right notices the late arrival and barks at him in goblin tongue as he takes the flat side of his large sword and hits the goblin on the side, knocking to the ground.

goblin speak

Big Goon: Where you been?

sniper: I get lost.

Big Goon: Boss looking for you. You were supposed to go with others

sniper: I go talk to him now if you stop hitting me

Big Goon: Ha! go now! He hit you harder. Ha ha!

The sniper speaks to the large guard while prone, careful not to get up. The large goblin type laughs out loud and lets the sniper get up. The goblin then moves deeper into the cave, stopping briefly on the right and left side of the corridor as if he is talking to someone. Afterwards, he moves further into the cave. Sharpe feels uneasy as it is quite some time before the goblin returns to view, at which point he grabs a touch and throws it at the back of one of the large guard's head. It hits him, the falls to the ground in front of the guard. The snipers runs back into the cave, laughing as the large guard roars in pain and anguish.

Vermitrax rises an eyebrow. "Of course I can, what kind of necromancer do you think I am? I need 1000 gold pieces and 5 hours of work and I can make loads of them." he says hiding the sarcasm just in case the bard is so nuts he decides to give him that amount of money.

"Bah! I'll be there if you need me. Don't worry if you don't see me, just call out."

Young monk sprints aside, going toward the cave from the side before plunging into the folliage. Unfortunately, his movement can be easily tracked by swaying of the undergrowth. It is clear it's a matter of moments before goblins distraction fails to cover his movement.

As one guard chases the sniper goblin into the cave, the other guard moves forward to investigation movement to the right of the cave entrance. He sniffs the air as he moves towards the moving vegetation, equipping his massive shield and large sword. Who out there?!
